Do you think of me in the middle of your day?
Does listening to a certain song trigger your painful memories of me?
Do you see a certain image, a certain brand, a certain place and I appear inside your cluttered head?
Do you think of me when you're alone in your room?
Staring at the darkness of your ceiling, reminiscing my crooked smile and abrupt laugh?
Does it cause a rippling effect inside your chest
Remembering all the perfect memories we're created together?

Do you regret what you've done to me?
Knowing we're strangers and that's on your end of the blame,
all fingers pointed towards you.
Do you regret what you've done?
Knowing I will always deeply resent you until my last breath,
Knowing I will never call out your name like I use to before,
Knowing I will never smile and bright up the moment I see you walk in the door,
And knowing we'll never, ever share that type of love we once had before?

Do you regret what you've done?

Do you regret losing me?
I hope you feel it all.

I hope you know I trusted you.
That I told you things I couldn't trust my own mother with.
That i bared my soul to you because I felt like no one else understood but you.
How wrong was I....
It may be low to do some of the things I've done, but I'll admit I've done them and own up to it.
But to put up a front and a pretense of friendship just to get information to someone trying to hurt me...
saying you wanted to wait till later to tell me how much of a ***** i was?
That's just an excuse for wanting to learn more about me to hurt me later.
If you had truly been my friend, you would have told me what was bothering you/
wow.
now that is low.

Everyone calls me a hurtful, deceitful manipulator.
The problem is, it's really hard to fix a problem with roots unknown to your own mind.
I don't understand what I'm doing wrong. And everyone else is too ******* and vengeful to help me understand.
So fine.
Manipulate me in return for my unrecognized "manipulation".
It doesn't count if it's revenge, does it?

I want things to be the way they were,
Before everything tore us apart,
but how can I ever trust you again,
After you carelessly broke my heart?

I wish I could go back in time,
and hide all my feelings away,
Lock them in a box before,
You ever found a chance to say...

You wished that we could be together,
So you could hold me in your arms,
If I had known your words were lies,
I wouldnt have believed your charms.

And just look where we are now,
Both of us losing the fight,
Youre Always in tears because of her,
While im pretending that I'm alright.

I can't tear myself away,
Though you bring me nothing but stress,
It doesn't matter how hard i try,
Ive fallen too deep into this mess.

Ive been tumbling down your rabbit hole,
Since the moment you said hello,
And now I think weve gone through too much,
For me to really let you go.

Its nights like these i think about,
All those promises that you made,
How I would lie awake telling God,
That I would change my life if you stayed.

You took a sledgehammer to my heart,
Until it finally broke in half,
and when you watched me fall to pieces,
I watched you shake your head and laugh.

I know that you can't understand,
Why i feel the way I still feel,
and I can see how hard you're trying,
but effort doesnt make it real.

I'll find the right direction somehow,
but im starting to wonder when,
Because if I don't watch where im going,
Ill get caught in your trap again.

Out on the dock
You asked for my heart
So many times it was torn apart
This one is different
I lied to myself but it was ok
Sometimes smiles minimize pain
Doubt in the back of my mind
I show you my scars
My ocean of secrets
My oasis of truth
My bottles full of past things I never let go
Reopen old wounds for you
Very unconventional
But it was you and you deserved to know
You broke bottle after bottle when I begged you to stop
Tore out my heart and left me dying on the dock
No tears fell from my eyes
You looked into mines, turned around and never took a second glance
But I begged for you to come back and help me
Screamed your name but you ignored
As my blood mixed with the salt in the ocean
I saw into the future
You with another girl
Where was I
Out on the dock
Waiting for something that wasn't going to happen
Unconventional and unintentionally
I cut off anything that could've healed me
Surrounded my self with glass
Bound by the past
Love I couldn't let go of held me back

You've known me all my life
So why can't you accept me
I can feel you watching me
Judging me for being me

I'm still the same person
I haven't changed at all
But yet you treat me differently
Like someone you don't know

I no longer feel so open
Like I need to hide
To not show you the parts of me
That you know are there

I thought I could trust you
I thought that you cared
I thought you would still love me
The same way you did before

But I was wrong
And I still don't understand
Why you can't let me be me
And show you who I am
Some people just need to be more open and accepting to new things. That way everyone can express themselves to the fullest and be who they truly are.

You pull me back just to push me out again.
You broke me for a fourth time.
I don't know how you put it back together every time, but you do.
I trust you again and again.

Why do I keep taking the same road when I know it's riddled with *** holes and dead ends?

Because of me

someone

will never be able to build their life.



Because of me

someone

is to be imprisoned.*



Because of me

someone

has had their life ruined.



Because of me

someone

will be hurting for a very long time.



Because of me

someone

*will never be able to trust anyone ever again.

The pain of losing someone you love
may be something,
But to be betrayed by your own flesh and blood
is everything,

Nothing is as vulnerable as exposing your weaknesses
to the people you trust the most,
The people you're willing to die for and you're
proud enough to boast,

And when the time comes when it seems
that everything is lost,
You become the victim when all you've tried
to be is a host,

Your greatest strength was your
greatest downfall,
You used to answer to their every
beck and call,

I guess it all comes down to just you after all.

I can't hide this drive
I just want to feel alive
Don't mean to hurt no one
But now that i have gone
You are in tears
Trust destroyed for years
Try to suppress this urge
My soul i try to purge
Failing every time
Here i sit and rhyme
Was raised this way
Unable of letting love stay
Moving from one to another
Any feeling of guilt i smother
Will i ever change?
I was debating on wheter to post this poem or not. This poem is not written on personal experience. I tried to see things on a players point of view. They often hurt people not because they want to but because they are unable of setteling down and accepting love. I write about things that I see are happening around me. I see people, who cheated or broke up but they did not necessarily mean to hurt people but just could not be satisfied with the love they had and thrived for more. It was a weird poem to write and it is not meant to protect those, who cheat and hurt people but to give people something to think about, what the reason might be why some individuals play and hurt others. Of course not everybody does this on accident. However I hope you still enjoy my poems and I was able to give you something to think about!

you
all your false promises sounded so pretty
little did I know you'd leave me feeling so ******

I knew I was not your only one
but even that did not force me to run

seeing your face once brought me peace
I did not know it would soon cease

for I did not think you could hurt me this way
I thought you were serious when you said you would stay

so ******* for doing this to me
and ******* for thinking so selfishly
